Lucas v. Commonwealth

DAVIS, Commissioner.

Joseph William Lucas, presently a prison inmate, sought post-conviction relief under RCr 11.42 in which he attacked the judgments imposing life sentences upon him pursuant to his pleas of guilty to two charges of armed robbery. His motion was denied without an evidentiary hearing.

The motion undertook to state eight separate grounds for relief. Without reciting these grounds in detail, it is appropriate to observe that all of them are purely conclu-sionary and vaporous. None of them presented any legal basis for affording an evidentiary hearing or granting the relief sought.
